Wedding favors are one of the less exciting aspects of planning a wedding, important, but often left a little late in the preparations. Don't worry if you can't think of anything as there is a whole industry set up supplying treats for guests. With this in mind, it should be one less item you have to worry about for your big day because your favors might just be a phone call away.
One option for an easy wedding favor, especially popular with the ladies is flowers. The preparation for flowers is almost non existent other than deciding on what flowers to use which can be ordered reasonably close to the big day.
You might consider giving your guests a single red rose as a favor and this is extremely appropriate because a rose is a symbol of love plus roses do not need to be wrapped. Placing the rose on the wedding reception table where the guest are seated is a nice touch and doesn't need to be done until the last minute.
These days the favorite is using candy and almost three quarters of events will use this as an easy wedding favor which can be enhanced by using a presentation tin. A simpler but possibly more interesting method is to present the candy that does away with expensive centerpieces altogether. Now, how simple is a large glass bowl filled with candy going to be in the centre of the table?
To complete this idea, a small plain bag or carton can be left for each wedding guest to put their candy into. This really is easy because each guest can choose whatever candy they like and there isn't a single piece of wrapping in sight.
If you prefer not to give your guests more to eat then another option is a small picture frame and if you like, it can be used on the day as placeholders. Where possible, try to find a way around wrapping wedding favors, especially the likes of picture frames which could take a considerable amount of time, not to mention the cost. By using the picture frames as placeholders provides a way around this, making it a gift that does not need to be wrapped.
One final idea for a very easy wedding favor is to give each guest a digital photo of themselves at the reception by hiring a photographer to take a picture of each couple as they arrive at the wedding reception. The photos can be printed out whilst the reception goes on and the guests will have a pleasant surprise at the end of the evening when they leave as their photo will be waiting for them. Everyone will appreciate this wedding favor as it is a reminder they can cherish for many years. If the photographer can arrange a slide show, the guests not only get a personal memento but they also get the opportunity to see how the photos turned out for all of the other guests as well.
Golf wedding favors are a wonderful idea for wedding favors for a golf enthusiast, and there are innumerable unusual wedding favor ideas for every imaginable hobby.
